Why You Go To Hell

In keeping with my recent post about "Getting People Lost, so You Can Get'm Saved" I have often encountered an argument that just blows my mind, but it is a common misconception based upon the regular faulty transmission of "the gospel" as portrayed by the dominant media culture and cults.

"God wouldn't/couldn't/shouldn't send me to Hell,
I'm not a BAD person!"

Silly Rabbit! You won't go to Hell because you're BAD! You'll go to Hell because you CHOSE to!

We all like to quote wonderful John 3:16...

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

- John 3:16 NIV

But don't overlook John 3:17 - 19 because it tells you why you'll go to Hell!

"For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.  This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil

- John 3:17-19 NIV

You will have no complaint against the Lord God Almighty if you end up in Hell. God made the path as open and free as anything you will ever see offered in this life.

Make no mistake: if you end up in Hell, it'll be because you insisted on going there. Know that now!

"The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance."

- 2 Peter 3:9
